Since 1973, the scope of species harvested and processed by Trident has expanded from king crab to include virtually every commercial species of salmon, whitefish, and crab harvested in Alaska, as well as Pacific whiting off the West Coast of the United States. Through Trident's global supply chain, the company responsibly sources from a network of trusted seafood producers worldwide.
